Israel Today commentator Yossi Aloni examines the US-led efforts to keep the Doha summit from failing and to prevent an attack on Israel.

The Foreign Ministry said that the calls from France, Germany and Britain to exercise restraint “lack political logic and contradict principles of international law.”

The attack could take place this week, but the grueling wait could also be seen by the Iranians as a form of punishment for Israel.

The top American diplomat will also reportedly visit Egypt and Qatar.

Tsuri Sagi, 90, trained Iran’s special forces under the shah and helped build the Kurdish military in northern Iraq.

The report said that Israeli intelligence indicates that the attack could be launched before the Gaza talks scheduled for Aug. 15.

“There is security, military and intelligence coordination between Jordan and Israel regarding the expected Iranian response.”

Arab diplomats have also pressed Iran to de-escalate the situation.

However, Hezbollah “is still a wild card”; Saudi media says Iran may be delaying a strike until after the OIC meeting in Jeddah
